2010 Coronation Street blogger's awards

It's the end of a long and bumpy year on Coronation Street. As we ring in the new year, I've had a look back at the old one and made a few lists of awards. These aren't your standard "Best Storyline" or "Best Newcomer" type thing. They are more in line with the style of our Weekly Awards.

With that in mind, Part 1 has the awards for the Mad, Bad and Dangerous, such as "When is it going to end" award and "Horrific Revelations" award.

Part 2 has awards in a more light hearted vein such as "Fashionista Award" and "Best, Worst and Pointless" Character Returns.

Maria Connor starts a fire at the salon when she accidentally burns some toast. Gail & David are killed in the blaze, and the nation breathes a collective sigh of relief.

Fat Brenda appears on screen for the first time and successfully seduces Eddie. Anna is livid when she catches them together and divorces Eddie, who promptly marries Brenda.

John Stape (who can't hold a candle to Richard Hilman- or even Tony Gordon!) kills Chesney when Ches finds out that John killed Charlotte. John blames Owen, who gets a life sentence. Liz is distraught and leaves the Street as a CGI tram goes over the newly rebuilt viaduct.

Norris foolishly agrees to spend a weekend in Paris with Mary with disastorous consequences!

Most pointless and irritating character: Freeloading Sian "can I have a sandwich Sally?"

Most dragged and and farcial storyline: John Stapewick and its not ended yet

Most unbelievable storyline: Many but Carla becoming a clingy alki has the be one of the most along with Molly suddenly wanting Kevin back after he had treated her like dirt and made it plainer than the nose on your face he didnt love her or even like her

Most awful return Tracyluv of course

Most falling from grace award: Becky for showing that she is really a thief and a looter and a low life.

Most needing work for tv work award: Diedre, its getting painful to watch her in HD, for goodness sake stop smoking woman!!!

Did David call Tracy a bike, in a sideways comment? And that was after he slept with her and she tried an insult on for size! As for clobbered Tracy? Well, it's not Steve. Loved the quick cuts to various possible culprits at the end. I think it's either David or Claire.

Sophie and Sian will now suffer the wraith of a sullen Sally. But there's a little matter of pot, kettle and black with Sally (and Tyrone). Yikes.
